Benefits of technology

The present patent provides a solution for indicating a multicast session to user equipment in an idle mode. This involves detecting the availability of an enhanced multimedia broadcast multicast service (eMBMS) session and indicating it to the UE in a paging message. The UE is then able to switch to a connected mode to decode the multicast control channel (MCCH) and obtain the multicast traffic channel (MTCH) to join the eMBMS session. The technical effect of this solution is improved efficiency in delivering multicast messages to user equipment and improved user experience.

Problems solved by technology

However, if the UE is in idle mode, the current eMBMS standardization does not provide a mechanism to the UE to dynamically determine availability of eMBMS sessions.

Abstract

A system that uses a method for indicating a multicast session to a user equipment (UE) in an idle mode by a base station is provided. The method includes detecting availability of an enhanced multimedia broadcast multicast service (eMBMS) session and indicating the eMBMS session to the UE in a paging message.

Description

PRIORITY[0001]This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(a) to Indian Patent Application Serial No. 5852 / CHE / 2014, which was filed in the Indian Intellectual Property Office on Nov. 21, 2014, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Field of the Disclosure[0003]The present disclosure relates generally to an evolved multimedia broadcast multicast service (eMBMS) for a mobile communication system, and more particularly, to indicating an eMBMS session to a user equipment (UE) in an idle mode.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]To enhance multimedia performance of a Third Generation (3G) mobile telecommunications system, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) introduces an MBMS, which is a point-to-multipoint bearer service established on an existing network architecture of the universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS). MBMS allows a source terminal to simultaneously transmit data to multiple UEs through int...
